General Questions 1. Will stations be enclosed/weather protected? Outdoor stations will feature weather protection barriers and platform coverage; station design updates are expected to be available for the public in 2020. Councillors are in discussions with the Rail Construction Program office to look at additional weather mitigation features where possible and feasible. 2. Will there be wider platforms, stairwells, and bus loop platforms at new stations? Space constraints vary based on each location; station design updates are expected to be available for the public in 2020. 3. How frequently will trains come? 12-minute headways will be maintained on both the Bayview-Limebank line as well as the Airport Link. 4. How will buses/bikes interact with stations? Where space is available, improvements to transit, cycling, pedestrian, and vehicular drop-off connectivity will be made. Design updates for these elements are expected in 2020. 5. Where will replacement trees be replanted? The project contract calls for planting of 1 tree for every 4 trees removed. Landscaping plans will be available in later phases of the project, and planting will occur towards the end of construction. 6. How will the local routes get people to their stations? What improvements will be made to local service? OC Transpo will complete this network planning over the next few years before the South Extension is ready to open to transit customers. 7. How will you communicate so that communities know construction is coming? Please contact [email protected] with any project-related inquiries. The City will keep the public apprised of project progress through Ottawa.ca/Stage2 from which the public can sign up for e-newsletter updates. The City will also work with the project contractor to provide direct notification to nearby stakeholders of major construction activities and impacts. 2 | P a g e Airport Link to Limebank Station 1. Where will the line be double tracked? The double tracking will begin north of Leitrim Road and continue to Limebank. Within the existing alignment, there will be passing tracks and sidings that will be lengthened. 2. Will the Earl Armstrong/Bowesville intersection be reconfigured? During the project, this intersection will be reconfigured to better align the intersection. The new intersection will be signalized, and include auxiliary turn lanes. 3. Will there be a Park “n’ Ride at Limebank Station? There will not be a Park ‘n’ Ride at Limebank Station. The future development plans for the area show a downtown main street design that is not conducive to large parking infrastrucure. An 800 space Park ‘n’ Ride will be available at Bowesville Station. 4. Will connectivity to Limebank be improved? The City is reviewing the connectivity plans for stations along the Trillium Line and any changes will be communicated to the public in advance. Carleton Station to South Keys Station 1. Why is the O-Train Line 2 shutting down and for how long? The O-Train Line 2 is shutting down to allow for the increase of double tracking through the rock cut, the upgrade of the existing Dow’s Lake tunnel with new safety systems and new technology, and the addition of new stations at Gladstone and Walkley as well as extensive work at Ellwood Diamond. The shutdown will last 28 months starting in May 2020. 2. Will connectivity between the west side of South Keys Station allow for residents to pass through the station to the shopping centre? Yes, there will be a connection to the shopping centre. 3. Will Mooney’s Bay Station have two entrances? At this time, the design includes once entrance. 4. Is Dow’s Lake Tunnel being widened for future double tracking? No, at this time there is no plan to widen the tunnel at Dow’s Lake. This is an extensive infrastructure undertaking that is not in the scope of the Stage 2 project. 5. Will the pedestrian bridge at Carleton University open before the system opens if it is ready? This information, when available, will be shared with the public. 6. How will connectivity to Walkley Station be improved? There is currently a connectivity review underway to identify opportunities to improve connectivity both within the project and with other City projects. Walkley Station connectivity is included in this review and any changes will be shared with the community. 3 | P a g e Bayview Station to Carling Station 1. How much of the trench will need to be widened for the double tracking? The designs have not progressed to this level of detail yet. Once the information is available, it will be shared with impacted stakeholders. 2. Will the Trillium Line MUP be closed during construction? The Trillium Line MUP will remain open during construction, although some localized detours may be required during some stages. 3. What will the frequency of R2 replacement buses be during the shutdown period? Frequency of the R2 will be every 12 minutes during off-peak periods and every 10 minutes during peak periods from the beginning of the shutdown period in May 2020 until September 2020. In September 2020, the frequency will increase to an interval yet to be announced by OC Transpo. 4 | P a g e « CE QUI A ÉTÉ DIT » Questions et commentaires des séances d'information sur le prolongement vers le sud de l'O- train Du lien vers l'aéroport à la station Limebank, séance tenue au Centre communautaire Rideauview le 5 février 2020 De la station Bayview à la station Carling, tenue au Centre de Hintonburg le 10 février 2020 De la station Carleton à la station South Keys, tenue au Centre récréatif Jim-Durrell le 13 février 2020 5 | P a g e Résumé • Les membres du public intéressés par le prolongement vers le sud ont été invités à une série de séances d'information pour examiner les renseignements sur le projet organisés selon le secteur de la station : o Du lien vers l'aéroport à la station Limebank (présence : ~70) o De la station Bayview à la station Carling (présence : 65) o De la station Carleton à la station South Keys (présence : 55) • Ces réunions informelles comprenaient une série de panneaux d'information et comptaient sur la participation d'experts en la matière pour fournir un contexte et des explications supplémentaires. • Le 13 février, une présentation et une période de questions et réponses ont été ajoutées à l'événement à la demande des conseillers. • Les membres de la communauté sont toujours invités à poser des questions et à formuler des commentaires par l’entremise d’[email protected].

  • OC Transpo O-Train Trillium Line Fare Gates Testing Go-Live
    FAQs – OC Transpo O-Train Trillium Line Fare Gates Testing Go-Live Q1. When will the O-Train Trillium Line fare gates be activated? A1. Starting November 1, 2017, OC Transpo will begin a phased customer testing period on O-Train Trillium Line fare gates and ticket machines at Carling, Carleton, Confederation and Greenboro stations. Customer testing will start at Carling Station on November 1 and make its way to Carleton Station on November 3, Confederation Station on November 6, and Greenboro Station on November 8. Testing is expected to be ongoing. Q2. What exactly will change for customers on Nov. 1? A2. At each station where the fare gate system has been activated, customers will enter through the fare gates by simply tapping their smartcard or scanning their transfer. New ticket machines will allow customers to check their Presto card balance and easily buy a single-ride fare, a DayPass or load their Presto Cards, using cash, debit and credit cards. Once purchased, customers can use their fare products immediately. Q3. Which functions will not go live starting Nov. 1? A3. During the first phase of customer testing, the live video chat feature where customers can communicate virtually with OC Transpo customer relations staff will not be available. Q4. Why is OC Transpo doing this in a phased approach? A4. OC Transpo is taking a phased customer testing approach to ensure a stable and successful system roll-out. This approach will also allow customers a chance to get to know the new O-Train Trillium Line fare gate functions in a real-life, high-traffic environment, and will allow OC Transpo an opportunity to work out any issues that may arise.
